I got my GP Cap 580 33% few weeks ago. My second girl Sienna was born 10 days ago, so the process of building it will be slower. I have elevators hinged and servos
installed. Now I am working on main wings. There is realy not that much to put
together.
I am going with Hacker A150 .I hope to order the motor with SC combo soon.Setup is heavier then Neu 2215 setup, but I like the outrunners. Also it will be easier to balance the plane.
I didn't order rudder servors yet. It will depend where the CG will end up. There is 3 options for rudder servos install. Either giant scale inside the fuse or outside the fuse with either 2 o 4 standard size servos depend on torque.
Motor will swing either 26x12 or 27x12 on 12S2P-8000.
Motor can go up to 14S.
SC is Master JETI SPIN-200.
I played with numbers in the Motocalc, the motor should be powerhouse
for total weight of the Cap around 28.75 lbs.

(Cap looks strange with no ailerons on the pictures)

For now I will stick with Lipos. I already have them. Might as well use them.

I will no longer contribute to this thread. I did open this thread in FlyingGiants
where I got very good usefull responds.

The final setup will be with Hacker A150, Mejzlik 27x12, 14S2P-8000 lipos. Close to
9000 Watts.
This Hacker A150 sure have plenty of power.

Jocke,
Thanks for the link on new Mejzlik TH props.
I will try to contribute to this thread (very little free time with new baby) even in my previous post I sad that I will not.
I opened same thread in FlyingGiants and I have very good responds from
very talented pilots like Andew Jesky who test flew this Hacker A150 system for Hacker since January. What is says it flies the best on 14S lipo 27x12 prop.

here is the link

You have to register to see it. It is for free.

P.S. I like the videos of your Katana with Predator 30-8.That is nice setup.
